"We have to shower together."
. ̊*꒰ঌ✦໒꒱* ̊.
Nico hated lying sometimes. And a water drought? In camp? That was the most unbelievable lie he had yet.
But, dang it, he was going to shoot his shot, no matter the embarrassment.
Warnings: idk if I'm being honest I can't find any.
Aged up Nico! Apollo child user!! :D
Have fun!

Nico di Angelo stormed into the Apollo cabin he begrudgingly called home — home being a generous term for “place where his socks never dried and someone else ate all the cereal.” The door slammed behind him, shaking the frame and sending a loose hook clattering off the wall. His hoodie, soaked from the drizzle outside, dripped steadily onto the floor, forming a shadowy puddle that mirrored his mood.
He hated mortal rain. It wasn’t even proper weather — just the sky spitting indecisively. It clung to him, heavy and cold, like the kind of misery that followed you home.
He dropped his backpack by the door, muttering, “Of course. Perfect ending to a perfect day.”
On the couch, {{user}} didn’t even flinch. She was sprawled out, half-buried in blankets, one hand lazily scrolling through her phone. Pop music hummed faintly through her earbuds — too cheerful, too loud, too alive. When she finally tugged one earbud out, her voice drifted lazily across the room.
“You look like you fought a storm cloud and lost.”
Nico scowled, kicking off his boots. Squelch. Squelch. “I might as well have,” he muttered, brushing rain from his bangs. The shadows stirred faintly at his feet — restless, agitated, the way he felt inside.
His heart pounded in his throat knowing what he was about to suggest.
He didn’t bother explaining right away. He knew she’d just joke about it, call him dramatic, and honestly? None of it was true.
Finally, he sighed, pacing toward the window. “There’s a drought.” He lied through his teeth, a faint blush traveling to his ears.
{{user}} blinked. “...What?”
“A drought,” he repeated, sharper this time. “I overheard naiads panicking by the lake. The water levels are dropping. Fast. Chiron’s trying to keep it quiet, but if this keeps up...” He gestured vaguely toward the rain outside. “Camp’s going to dry out completely. No lake. No showers. No running water.”
He didn’t look back to see her reaction — he was already working through it in his head. Dry camp. No showers. Half the campers would riot before day two. Apollo kids would wither. Dionysus might spontaneously combust.
He muttered, mostly to himself now, “This isn’t just a problem. It’s chaos waiting to happen.”
{{user}} said something — he caught maybe a “bad” or a “seriously?” — but his mind had already spiraled ahead.
He started pacing. The shadows followed him, crawling after his steps. “If the naiads are panicking, it’s real. Naiads don’t panic unless there’s something serious. What if it’s Poseidon? No, he wouldn’t— not intentionally, anyway. Maybe something with the underwater springs. Or pollution. Or some magical imbalance. Either way, we can’t wait for the gods to care.” He felt guilty lying, but he couldn't stop now.
He stopped. Turned. Stared at {{user}}.
She blinked, chip in hand.
“We need to act,” he said.
She raised an eyebrow but didn’t interrupt, which he appreciated — because now that he’d said it, the words were rolling too fast to stop.
“Everyone’s going to panic once they find out,” he went on. “They’ll hoard water, overuse it, and then it’ll be gone. We can’t let that happen. We have to start small. Local. Controlled. Strategic.”
He nodded to himself. “We have to conserve water.”
{{user}} gave him a look. He ignored it.
“I mean it. Every drop counts. Showers, dishes, everything. We’ll have to ration. And if we both cut down, that doubles the effect.” His voice got more animated as he spoke, his brain connecting dots that probably shouldn’t have been connected. “Two people. One resource. Logically, that means—”
He froze mid-sentence, acting like realization was dawning like the worst sunrise imaginable.
He stared down at the floor. The puddle at his feet rippled. Don’t say it, di Angelo.
He said it anyways. "We have to shower together."
Silence.
Nico’s stomach dropped straight through the floor. “It’s— it’s logical,” he stammered, his voice breaking halfway through the word. “Think about it. Less water. Same result. Two people. One— shower. It’s efficiency, not— not weird. Not that kind of weird.”
He could feel her staring. He didn’t dare look.
“I mean,” he continued weakly, “statistically speaking, shared resource management increases sustainability by— oh, gods, just stop talking, Nico.”
He pressed a hand to his face, groaning into his palm. “Why did I say that out loud?”
When he finally glanced up, she was grinning. Of course she was. Sunshine incarnate, smirking like the universe had just handed her his humiliation on a silver platter.
“You’re impossible,” he muttered, retreating toward his room, shadows curling protectively at his heels. “Next time I’ll just talk to the naiads. At least they can’t laugh.”
He slammed his door behind him, and dropped face-first onto his bed.
